Trial Guard Hall, living room——
"Madam, what do you think of the name Shinsuke Kondo? I think this name is very good. Shinsuke has the meaning of 'thriving' in it."
"Shinsuke...it doesn't sound good to me, and it's not powerful enough."
Although it is still half a month before Kondo officially gets married, and the horoscope has not been revealed yet, this does not prevent Zhousuke and Abi from starting to imagine the future of having a daughter-in-law in the trial Wei Hall, and thinking about what to give them. What kind of names will you give your grandchildren in the future?
Due to their differences in personality and knowledge, Zhou Zhu and A Bi have been unable to reach a unified opinion on the naming of their future grandson.
Zhou Zhu, who had no big vision for his grandson and just hoped that he would grow up safely, tended to choose a name with a better meaning.
But Abi, who "hopes for his grandson to become a dragon", hopes that his future grandson's name will be quite powerful and very warrior-like.
The old couple, who were idle because they had nothing to do at the moment, had been discussing this matter in the living room since just now in order to pass the boring leisure time. They had been discussing this for many days, but they had never come up with a solution. coming topic.
The two of them were so engrossed in chatting that they didn't even have time to take a sip of the tea beside their knees until it had cooled down.
The "Shinsuke Kondo" that he had racked his brains to come up with in the past two days was rejected by his wife... Shusuke was not discouraged.
Just as he cleared his throat and was about to mention another name that he had also painstakingly thought of in recent days and that he liked very much——
Winter winter winter winter!
Outside the door, there was a sudden knock on the door.
Zhou Zhu and A Bi both paused, turned their heads, and cast doubtful glances in the direction of the door.
"Who...?" Abi frowned, "It's late at night...it's not King Wow and Lord Susubo again, is it?"
Wawatenno and Sosubozu: entertainers who went from house to house begging very commonly in Edo.
Most of the King of Wawa is wearing a tattered and dirty black vest, a white narrow-sleeved kimono and culottes underneath, two fake swords on his waist, and a strange mask of Sarutahiko on his face. He shouted: "The King of Wow loves making noise the most!" So he went from house to house begging for a penny.
The masters of Sosubo carried a green bamboo in their arms. They strung copper coins on the front of the bamboo, and while walking around the streets and alleys, they shook the bamboo vigorously and recited strange scriptures.
"Madam, please wait here for a moment while I go take a look."
Zhou Zhu stood up, walked through the hall and corridor, and walked quickly to the door.
"Good evening, who is it?"
As soon as Zhou Zhu finished speaking, a loud voice immediately sounded outside the gate:
"Master Kondo! It's me! Chiba Jutaro!"
"Jutaro?" Zhou Assistant raised his eyebrows vigorously, and then quickly opened the door.
I saw a strong man with a smile standing outside the gate - it was Chiba Jutaro.
"Jutaro." As Zhousuke greeted Chiba Jutaro, he stretched his neck and looked around him, "Are you the only one here? What's wrong? Why did you suddenly visit my training hall late at night?"
"I'm the only one here!" Chiba Jutaro smiled heartily, "I hope you'll forgive me for taking the liberty of visiting. I came here suddenly because I wanted to see Mr. Tachibana! Is Mr. Tachibana here?"
"Tachibana-kun? He happens not to be in the trial hall right now."
"Not here?" Chiba Jutaro was stunned, "Where has he gone?"
"He went to the bathhouse to take a bath."
Zhou Assistant pointed at the thin steam not far away.
"Tachibana-kun, he probably won't be back so soon. Jutaro, if you have something urgent to see Tachibana-kun, why don't you come in and sit down for a while?"
Zhousuke suggested this to Chiba Jutaro...but at this time, Chiba Jutaro was not listening at all.
I saw Chiba Jutaro looking straight in the direction where the Chihiro House was pointed by Shusuke just now.
At a speed visible to the naked eye, an expression appeared on his face as if he was thinking about something...
…
…
Chihiro House——
While Kondo and Inoue were still looking stunned, Hijikata was the first to recover from his astonishment.
He frowned slightly, looked at Qingdeng deeply, then turned his head and said loudly to Nagacang and others:
"Oops! By the way, why did I forget!"
Hijikata shouted as he stood up from the water.
"Nagakura-kun, Saito-kun, Harada-kun, get up quickly, stop soaking! You three come with me!"
"Ah?" Harada widened his eyes in confusion.
"Hijikata-kun." Nagakura asked, "What's wrong?"
Although Saito, who kept his mood and anger to himself, remained silent as he continued his taciturn personality, he still gave Hijikata a puzzled look.
"Since just now, I always feel as if I have forgotten something." Hijikata said quickly, "Now I remember it! You three, come to my house with me now, I have something I want you three to accept! "
The "home" in Hijikata's words naturally refers to the small shabby house he rented near the Imperial Guard Hall.
"Something? Please accept it?" Nagakura's face became more confused, "What is it?"
"Yes, yes!" Harada looked curious, "What is it?"
"Some of my collections." Hijikata said without thinking.
"Collectibles? Why are you giving us such collections in such a hurry?" Nagakura continued what Harada had just interrupted, "It's late at night now. We can't wait until tomorrow or some time after that..."
Before Nagakura finished speaking, Dougang shook his head vigorously.
"No, no."
"I'm going to change my place to live in the future. I won't live in that shabby house that has no other advantages except being close to the trial gym."
"Yesterday, I made an appointment with a garbage collector, and planned to take advantage of the opportunity of moving soon to throw away some of the furniture in my house that I no longer need, as well as some of the collections that I no longer want to keep. Lose."
"After making an appointment with the garbage collector, when I was counting the things I wanted to throw away, I suddenly discovered that those pieces of furniture were not valuable, so they would be thrown away if they were thrown away. But if I just throw away my collections, It feels like a pity to drop it.”
“So I decided to give my collection away instead.”
"The garbage collector will probably arrive tomorrow."
"So if I can't give away my collection before tomorrow, I'll have to give it to the garbage collector."
"I have given things similar to my collection to Asheng, Uncle Yuan and Tachibana before, but they didn't like them, so the only ones I can choose to give them to now are you three."
"It's not too late to go to my house now."
"If you want to stay here until you play in the bathhouse and then leave for my house, it will be a little late."
Hijikata's rapid-fire talk successfully attracted the interest of Nagakura and others, including Saito.
"Hijikata, what exactly is your collection?" Harada asked excitedly.
Hijikata showed an intriguing smile and said in a faint tone words that deliberately aroused the curiosity of Nagakura and others:
"It will be kept secret for now. When you get to my house, you will naturally know what it is."
"Okay! Let's go to your house quickly!" Harada jumped up like a spring.
Nagakura hesitated for a moment, then stood up slowly following Harada.
At the same time as Nagakura stood up, Saito stood up straight silently - although Saito had the same expressionless expression as always, as if he was world-weary, if you look carefully, you can see in his eyes Discover the vague curiosity that was tainted by Hijikata Shizai's words.
Looking at Nagakura and others who stood up, Hijikata's eyes flashed with relief and joy.
"A Sheng, Uncle Yuan, Tachibana, let's go first."
Hijikata turned around and said to Kondo, Inoue and Aoto:
"Just continue taking a bath first."
"Pay attention to the time and don't soak for too long."
"Baba Yu is an old lady with a very kind heart."
"We are regular customers of this bathhouse. She might be embarrassed to kick us out out of consideration for our mutual affection."
"If we stay in the bathtub until someone can't bear it anymore and urges us to leave, it won't look good on either side."
"And if you soak in it for too long, people will easily get dizzy."
Hijikata emphasized the word "faint".
At the same time, he glanced sideways at Qingden, intentionally or unintentionally.
"Don't get carried away like Souji."
"If you get dizzy after taking a bath, remember to get out of the bath in time and then lie down in a cool place."
"Speaking of which... I was suffering from a cold a while ago and went to Mancaoya in Shimachi 2-chome to buy medicine. I happened to see that Mancaoya had medicines specially designed to treat heatstroke and dizziness."
"Oh, now that the weather is getting hotter, these medicines that are specially designed to treat heat stroke and dizziness are becoming more and more popular."
"That Wancaowu is also a very magical medicine shop. It is open until nine o'clock in the evening (12 o'clock in the evening) every day."
At first glance, Hijikata's words seemed to be just a casual reminder.
But listening to Qingto, who was now back-to-back with the dizzy Souji, he clearly felt that there was a different meaning in Hijikata's words.
Qingden raised his gaze and cast a grateful look at Hijikata.
——Hijikata, I really belong to you...!
At this moment, Qingteng was very convinced: Hijikata should have deduced what happened! Those words that Hijikata just said were all specifically for him!
After finishing speaking, Tu Bian no longer hesitated or lingered, and led Nagakura and others quickly out of the bath.
As Hijikata and the others left, the originally noisy bathhouse suddenly became quiet.
Ever since Hijikata suddenly stood up and asked Nagakura and others to go with him to his house to pick up the collection he didn't want, Kondo and Inoue had always looked confused as to what Hijikata was trying to do.
It wasn't until Hijikata and Nagakura's group disappeared from the bath that the two men finally understood what Hijikata wanted to do.
The two people, who looked suddenly enlightened, quickly turned around and faced Qingdeng.
"Tangerine-kun."
Kondo used a tentative tone and carefully asked in a deep voice:
"Could it be that, Director-General, she is... behind you now?"
Hearing Kondo's words, Qingto couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief in his heart.
——Very good...guessed it right...! Kondo and the others really know that Okita-kun is a girl!
I can't let Nagakura-kun, Saito-kun, and Harada-kun find out that I am a girl. When Kondo and others were about to enter the bath, Souji, who was afraid that his daughter's body would be exposed, blurted out these words subconsciously.
Only Nagakura and others were mentioned...but not Kondo, Hijikata, or Inoue.
Combined with the close relationship between Souji and these three people as if they were close relatives... Aonto made a bold guess: Kondo, Hijikata and Inoue knew that Souji was a girl!
Under such conjecture, Qingto made up the nonsense he just said about "I just took a bath with Okita-kun".
Souji is a girl. How could he take a bath with you in the men's bath? If Kondo and others knew Souji's true gender, they would not be indifferent after hearing these lies from Aoto.
Fortunately, Qingdeng guessed correctly.
They are brothers with Souji... ah no, they have a relationship like brothers and sisters. They do know Souji's true gender.
Fortunately, Kondo and the others were alert enough to realize in time that there was something behind Aoto's words and he was hinting at them.
Hijikata made great achievements in the third year of his life!
Thanks to his success in evacuating Nagakura and others, Aomori and the others no longer have to worry about Souji's daughter's true identity being further exposed.
And judging from Hijikata Shizai's performance, he is also the smartest and most eye-catching one - just from Aoto's few words, he can guess that the dizzy Souji is probably hiding behind Aoto, reminding Aoto " If you get dizzy after soaking, remember to get out of the bath in time and get some medicine if necessary." He also mentioned that there are still pharmacies open during this time.
"Yeah." Qingden nodded vigorously towards Kondo, "Okita-kun is behind me now, she's fainted."
After saying that, Qingden turned his head slightly and glanced behind him from the corner of his eyes.
"Okita-kun, are you okay?"
"Hmm...hmm...it's...ok..."
Moans like those in sleep floated feebly from Qingdeng's back.
Although Souji can still communicate with people normally, his tone is quite weak.
When Qingnobo, Kondo and Inoue saw this, they all looked frightened and worried.
"The situation is not good, my voice is so weak!" Inoue stammered.
"You have to get Souji out of the bathhouse quickly!" Although Kondo didn't stutter as directly as Inoue, the anxiety and worry written on his face was no less than Inoue's.
Taking Souji out of the hot bath and letting her rest in a cool place - this is the most important thing to do at the moment, no doubt about it.
What needs to be done is very clear... but there is currently a very serious question before the three of them: How are the three grown men going to bring Souji... this young girl who is currently naked? Away from the bath?
Men and women are different. They were not allowed to look at Souji's naked body due to emotion or reason, and they also tried their best to avoid having too ambiguous physical contact with Souji.
But if we were to take Souji, who was now slightly unconscious, out of the bathhouse, how could we not look at and touch Souji's delicate body intimately?
The three people who are aware of this problem, you look at me, I look at you...
For a moment, the atmosphere in the bathhouse was awkward and embarrassing.
First of all, we definitely can’t entrust people from Chihiro House to help.
It's inconvenient to explain why a girl suddenly appeared in the men's bath.
Secondly, if you do this, the true gender of Souji's daughter will be known to more people, which must be something Souji himself doesn't want to see.
"Kondo-kun, Uncle Minamoto, Master and Master, do they know that Okita-kun is a girl?" Qingto asked quickly, "Can I ask my master to come over and help take Okita-kun away?"
"Both father and mother know that Okita-kun is a girl..." Kondo said solemnly, "but this is a men's bath... mother can't get in..."
"Tsk..." Qingdeng smacked his lips vigorously - he almost forgot that the place they were in now was a men's bath, except for the staff of the bathhouse, no women were allowed to enter...
Qingdeng and others were anxiously thinking about what to do now, and they were already ants on a hot pot - anxious.
The result was unfathomable: someone’s sudden appearance made Qingdeng’s and the others’ faces instantly look even uglier…
"Tachibana-kun, good evening! Huh? Isamu, Mr. Inoue, are you here too?"
Qingden stared blankly at the tall figure that was strutting through the pomegranate mouth and entering the bathing place.
"...Mr. Jutaro?"

It’s been a long time since I’ve posted a super short chapter like this… My pot, my pot! (leopard death.jpg)
Yesterday, the lock on the door of the author's room was broken, and he went out all night to find a locksmith to repair it. As a result, the coding time was greatly delayed. I could have finished the plot of "Qingnobo and Souji posting stickers" in one chapter. Beautiful ending, now I have to divide this plot into 2 chapters (Leopard Head Crying.jpg) Tomorrow, the author will try to write more...
